You Belong Here is proud to sponsor our space for

Elephant Talks

Wednesday, September 25th, 7-8:30pm

Join Maharani Peace Hall for a seriously WOKE evening, for you, our community and neighbors!

Elephant Talks are about addressing the “elephant” in the room. We tackle important and sometimes difficult equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) topics that far too often are pushed aside due to people’s discomfort. In a safe yet brave setting, facilitators embark on a journey of reflection, understanding, growth, and positive change with participants. This is hard but necessary work. The conversations will be uncomfortable at points but with the willingness of all involved the hope is to come to new levels of understanding and compassion. We are all knowledge holders and through deep, meaningful, guided dialogue we can collectively start to change perspectives, hearts, and minds.

IMMIGRATION

We are currently living in a time where people are concerned about national security, securing borders, safety, providing better opportunities for themselves and their loved ones, etc. This hot button topic is polarizing but to get to a solution we must sit down together and actually listen to each other with open hearts and minds. This topic effects us all. Let's compassionately converse with the hopes of coming up with ways to positively impact our community.

If you're interested in being part of the conversation so that your voice is heard, if you want to be the change you wish to see in the world come participate in this free event.

Please invite others!!

Thanks in advance.

Light refreshments provided.

This is a FREE event!!
